LIMA BEAN CULTURE.
Directions for Obtaining a Large Crop Of
 the Best Quality.

Directions for Obtaining 8 Large Crop Of
 the Best Quality.
 The Lima bean requires a warm, loose soil, well drained, and if the ground is ridged up well in the fall in iive-foot beds, so much the better. Then, as soon as the soil will work nicely, clean out the furrows which have been left to carry off the water, with blow, going up and back on each one. If the place is where celery was grown the year before, so much the better. Then, on the bottom, lay along, at liberal thickness, some coarse cornstalks from the cow-yard. Then fold a furrow over them from each side. Then put liberal sprinkling of good mixed barnyard manure on top. Then, with a garden rake, get on the opposite side and pull the best soft soil to the center. Let the sun into it few days. Then sprinkle on some wood-ashes, chicken manure, or any thing of a good fertilizing charac- ter which practical men well know puts life and vim into the product; and when the soil is well warmed up, run two light, thin furrows with a hand cultivator, double rows, in the center of the bed, just over where the corn stalks are, about foot deep and five feet apart. Drop the Lii ma bean seeds a foot apart, and cover one and one- half to two inches deep with very fine soil, raked over lightly.
 After they are up, say five inches high, and just as they are breaking out to run, take one-horse blow and blow a good furrow deep, away from each side of the double row. Then take some good fiat pea-brush and push it down in each furrow, so that it leans little to the center, and making the two rows go along together, inter-bind tEem, and when the rows are stuck through, turn the furrows back, blowing up against the sticks as close as the horse can walk; than press with the foot, having a hoe iS hand, careful to handle the beans inside and give each good chance.
 One season of this treatment will convince the grower that the ten-foot bean pole, where ladder or chair is needed to gather them, has gone out of date, and, beside, all the blossoms that hang in the shade are not so likely to fall off by the action of the sun, wind and rain. as those exposed to the weather by the pole system.

Elephants at Sea.

Tho hosting into tho cir and lower..s
elephants into tho hold Of ship Is not only
an unusual sight to most mon but also
strange experience to most elephants. They
were dashed with strong ropes, slung as far
rs practicable in sings, hoisted up with
cranes and three-fold tackle and lowered into
the steamers hold like bales Of cotton. When
in the hold they were placed in pens built Of
strong teak timber balks, bolted to tho ships
side to prevent them from breaking loose.
The fear tho animals suffered was tho only
pain they underwent, and by watching the
eyes of tho poor beasts their terror was very
manifest Tears trickled down their faces
and they Toared with dread, moro especially
when being lowered into the hold, tho bottom
of which was sanded for them to stand upon.

STYLES In Hairdressing.


While the majority of ladies wear the hair
dressed high on the head, there is no set rule
as to how it shall be arranged; and the more
irregular the disposition of it and unstudied
the effect, the better. Small combs are in
high vogue and are placed according to the
fancy of the wearer, but where they will ap-
parently do the most good. Sometimes the
hair is parted down the middle of the back,
and each strand is twisted separately and dis
posed high on the head, making sort OF
double French twist effect; or one strand is
carried over the other. and a comb with a
SQUARE top ornaments the place of crossing.
The front is disposed in loose waves and short,
fluffy curs, shading the forehead only slight
". For dressy wear. bows and pompons and
feathers and aigrettes are placed well forward
and a little to one side. Very beautiful orna-
ments in these styles for the hair can be found
ready made; clusters Of short tips, cream or
pink, or pale blue, curling over like the leaves
of lily, with blistling aigrettes standing In
the center; rosettes of narrow, picot edged
ribbon. in dark as well as light colors, with
the inevitable aigrette in the middle, some
times of silver or gold; pompons made of
picot ribbon. with upright loops of wider
ribbon used as an aigrette; cluster of roses

in some flowers, tips and ribbons are COM
